这片子的三观能歪到让人对黑帮恨铁不成钢的程度。

开篇立意是挺新颖的，不过高质量有深度的对决应该是两个系统之间势均力敌的较量，个人意志和运气带来的逆转反而拉低了影片层次，尤其结尾用“正义一枪”草草收场，取代了犯罪系统的整体崩坏，这是对美利坚社会法制信心全无了的意思么。

个人感觉比较好的范例是《战争之王》和《绅士们》

带有资本主义成分的社会，始终是以强者的利益为终极目标的。

而所谓的公平和法制，看上去为弱者提供了保障，但实际上它并不带来绝对意义上的好处。

它们只是工具而已，效果的好与坏取决于公平的制造集团和法律的操纵集团。

只要是被人创造出来的事物，就有被人利用操控的空间，尤其是在这个事实容易被捏造，而规则的执行者越来越依赖于条文和被捏造的事实的社会上。

大多数人都喜欢做一个追随者，他们只需要根据社会公认的规则做出判断和行动就可以获得应有的报酬，但倘若打破砂锅问到底，焉知祸福？

因为在资本的社会中，没人有会因你的善良、勇敢、正义本身让你衣食无忧。

捕食者和猎物的角色也会动态变化，没有人可以成为注定的、绝对的捕食者，剧中的被监护的老人们，在年轻时大多属于成功人士，但在失去力量后，也难免成为猎物。

终其一生在这个弱肉强食的社会中苦心经营，即使运用不公的手段，但还是难逃被系统吞噬的悲剧命运。

和资本一样可怕的是擅于应用制度者，他甚至可以让资本都束手无策。

最可怕的是资本和制度的联合，后果就是用资本的力量将制度的漏洞指数级放大。

试问，现实生活中多少莽夫可以不顾法律地去杀人呢？

所以电影的结局看似喜剧，其实还是悲剧。

开始的剧情倒还是很不错的，女主的可恶让人恨得牙痒痒，然后就特别希望黑帮儿子能好好惩罚这个女主，结果呢？

看到黑帮杀不死女主和女主女朋友，然后反杀黑帮老大，我就直接不看了！

太特么的浪费时间，太特么的搞笑了，跟个喜剧片一样，关键还不是那种真的喜剧片，看得窝火，烂片烂片烂片！

谁特么看谁后悔！

要问哪个外国明星是发自内心，实打实的喜欢中国文化。

那裴淳华女士必须当仁不让。

不仅在脱口秀上传授老外中国民间俗语——

还用全中文录制牛年春节祝福，问候广大中国影迷。

单从名字来说，没有点国学底蕴真起不出这寓意满满的民国名媛风。

写出来更是让人惊叹姐姐的一手好字。

最近裴姐可谓人逢喜事精神爽，刚刚拿下了金球奖影后桂冠。

今天咱就来聊聊这部封后之作——

裴淳华饰演的玛拉是一位职业监护人。

这种职业依托于美国的“法定监护人”制度，被认定为无行为能力的老年人、游民等都会被州政府安排一个法定监护人。

这一初衷本是大爱无言、感动美国的无私工作，却被玛拉看到漏洞。

她智谋布局，心机攻防，步步为营。

打通医生和安养机构，将一个个目标送到宛如监狱的养老院，连家属都无法接见。

这群老人完全沦为她的摇钱树，被肆意压榨蚕食直至掏空。

虽然手段龌龊，但在程序上，她并没有逾越法律，完全合法。

怎么做到的？

首先，医生会为她提供目标。

目标一般会出现记忆和智力下降、行为能力退化的症状。

紧接着，医生便会向法院申请一场听审会，庭上一通颠倒黑白，“她孤苦无依”“她神志不清”“她没有办法好好照顾自己”……

哦，多么可怜的人啊！

于是法官便会下达行政令， 任命玛拉为法定监护人。

当事人从头至尾没有出现，但从此刻起，这个陌生的女人已经对他的生活拥有完全的法律权力。

这招百试不爽，直到遇到珍妮弗。

珍妮弗·彼得森从各方面来说都是一个完美目标。

她除了有一丝丝糊涂外，身体非常硬朗（活的越久意味着被压榨的时间越长，一旦去世遗产就会进入继承阶段，或交由亲属或充公）。

无子无女无丈夫，没有任何在世亲人。

住在高档小区，拥有完整产权的昂贵房产。

金融工作退休，手握高额保险和收益极其可观的基金和证券。

信用极佳，没有债务、没有任何不良记录，在玛拉眼中，她就是一只坐在一窝金蛋上，肥得流油的金鹅。

这么一只肥羊送到嘴边，玛拉怎么会放过。

一顿熟悉的操作，珍妮弗被送进了养老院。

手机没收，自由受限。

这边珍妮弗惨遭囚禁，那边玛拉开始疯狂“抄家”。

她把老太太的房子翻了个底朝天，包括房子在内的所有物品均被一一标价、出售，老太太攒了大半辈子的家当比玛拉预期要多的多，

不仅如此，她还找到了意外的惊喜。

在一个隐蔽角落，玛拉发现了一把银行保险箱的钥匙。

没想到里面居然是金表、金砖，

和钻石。

关键这些钻石的品质极佳，每一颗都至少价值20万美元。

事情发展愈发出乎玛拉的预料，一个退休社畜，即便是金融领域，再有钱也不可能会到如此地步。

而最让玛拉不解的是——

为什么？

因为这很可能是不法所得！

这老太太到底是何方神圣？

原来，她的儿子是俄罗斯黑手党的头目。

她可不是什么待宰的羊羔，她是黑帮帝国的太后。

就连珍妮弗·彼得森这个身份都是伪造的。

当知道母亲被送到养老院后，黑帮老大出离愤怒。

但为了能安静迅速的解决问题，他先派出了律师上门谈判，律师直接带了15万美元现金，但玛拉狮子大开口，一张嘴就是五百万。

谈判破裂。

既然文的不行，那就来武的。

黑帮老大派出三个手下，谎借参观养老院来营救珍妮弗，不想玛拉带着警察及时赶到，营救计划也以失败告终。

玛拉逼问珍妮弗到底是方神圣，但老太太对其不屑一顾，据不透露。

但是，虎落平阳被犬欺，玛拉动用手段将老太太直接送进了精神病院。

这让孝顺的黑帮首领勃然大怒，他决定开战。

第一件事就是处决了渎职的医生。

她们这才意识到事态的严重，是硬刚到底还是保命跑路？

眼看到手的银子，玛拉会不会甘愿放弃？

想知道的小伙伴快去影片里寻找答案吧！

玛拉认为世界上只有两种人，掠食者和猎物。

在食人社会的体制下，她作为掠食的母狮子，以最泯灭良心的方式过着精致美好的生活。

她熟悉体制规则、依靠公义法槌“合法”剥削老人。

而这种利用体制漏洞掏空弱者的做法，正是本片最具冲突性的安排。

法律并非保护好人，而是保障懂法律的人。

本片真实社会事件为灵感，就是在这样的基调下左批医疗制度缺口，右批法院昏庸无能。

法官只会依据纸面做出判断，无在无当事人和第三方机构的双重认证下，让女主等一众收尸大队有了可趁之机。

要成功就必须运用特殊手段，但利益与道德之间又该怎么去取舍衡量？

本片百因必有果、天道好轮回的结尾在传达主创的价值导向的同时，告诉我们“成功”所必须做出的牺牲和可能要承担的风险。

从片中也能一窥原本出于善意的体制是如何变得邪恶，而个体又是如何在体制下被无情碾压，在无路可走的情况下，最终选择法外私刑“解决问题”。

不论是为了报复、还是安慰自我，这些决定都凸显了亟需改善的体制问题。

两个小时，高潮迭起反转不断，导演试图触及议题的目的已完整达成，但全员恶人的设定无疑决定了观众很难带入或认同片中的任何一方。

玛拉是贪婪的秃鹫，也是被侮辱的女性，她关心（监护care）一切，却又只在乎自己。

这样一个复杂的角色生生被裴姐演活了。

即便是单挑黑帮大佬这种匪夷所思的桥段，但放在她身上就是会变得合情合理、令人信服，单单为了她影后级别的演出，本片也绝对值得一看。

戳【有用】，为裴淳华打call

这个电影很有意思，黑色幽默+反讽手法，看完之后发人深省。

之前看过一本书（忘了什么名字），大概就是说社会上大量的资源掌握在少数人的手里，当你想做什么、想看什么、想买什么......都有可能不是你真实的想法，而是别人让你“想做什么、想看什么、想买什么......”。

这里说的别人就是掌握大部分社会资源的人，在金字塔顶端的人，他们以利己的操作，让买单的人心甘情愿，好像是被操作的人自己的真实意图得到了表达。

对比电影看，Marla这类人就像是金字塔顶端的人。

他们串接养老院、医生，甚至拿起了法律作为工具，进行一系列“合理合规合法”的“偷窃”行为。

包括后来黑黑联合，一个提供资本，一个提供“技术”（操作模式和具体实施），强强联合下垄集社会资源，一切都在计划之内，让不明所以的老年人心存感激、让明白所以的老年人无力反抗。

看完电影后，开始重新理解亲人们催婚。

父母、自己、儿女三代人，三条时间线。

父母在慢慢老去的过程中见证你的成长，而你又在慢慢老去的过程中见证儿女的成长，跟你在同一时间线上的是你的伴侣。

也重新理解“养儿防老”这个词，不是老人在无自理能力后一定要儿女到跟前服侍，而是在你受到不公正待遇之后，有人为你伸张正义，有人为你维权。

【首发于公众号 写作疑难杂症诊疗室】I Care A Lot 一句话影评： The storytelling is so good, acting so good, until you realize the story is so … 三观不正 😤 If you are intrigued by Rosamond Pike’s unfeeling, first-rate psychopathic smart bitch in Gone Girl, then you will watch I Care a Lot as soon as you have the chance. Well, that’s what I did. And it was the first movie I watched in 2023 — by Jove, how it angered me. Two minutes into the movie, it is living up to the poster’s promise of badass-ness. Pike plays Marla Grayson, who does the voice-over in the opening monologue synopsizing her worldview: this is a world of either winners or losers, predators or prey, lions or lambs. Black or white, no middle ground. An all too familiar worldview to the point of hackneyed, but Pike’s delivery, her cadence, is top-notch. In this strictly dichotomous world, Marla declares: “I am not a lamb. I am a fucking lioness.”Suspense is a foundational trick to hold the audience’s attention. The opening scene does this by the discord between what you see on the screen and what you hear. You hear Marla briefing you on her Ayn Randian philosophy (which has a lot of avid supporters in the far right, something to keep in mind when thinking about why the movie is terrible), but you see images of an orderly care facility where the staff seem attentive to the elderly, and then a disheveled, chubby man trying to break into the facility, only to be quickly seized by some brawny guards. If you are minimally familiar with the science of storytelling, you know that suspense helps to release dopamine, the so-called happiness hormone. When you anticipate a reward, in the case of storytelling, when you expect that everything will be accounted for by the end of the movie, your brain produces dopamine. This opening scene is your first shot of dopamine. The next scene quickly explains what is going on. We are now in a courtroom. Turns out, the mother of the disheveled man, Feldstrom, is in the care facility, to which he is denied access. The court appoints Marla as his mother’s guardian, giving her license to deny Feldstrom visits to his own mother. Marla is also entitled to sell the mother’s house, car, valuable belongings and then use the money to pay herself for her service as the court-appointed guardian. If this sounds crooked, it is. Feldstrom adds that Marla is a total stranger both to him and his mother, and his mother has explicitly said that she doesn’t want to be put in a care facility. Just when you think Marla is the bad guy in the story, here comes the twist. Marla defends herself, first by portraying the son as irresponsible: “Your mother couldn’t cope on her own. A doctor diagnosed her with dementia, Mr Feldstrom, and wrote an affidavit recommending immediate action be take for her safety. You have amply opportunity to move your mother into a care facility or into your home. You did neither.” When parents abuse or for whatever reason can’t take proper care of their children, we think it reasonable for the government and the judicial system to step in. The same goes to elderly who aren’t properly cared for. So far so good, Marla seems reasonable. When Feldstrom objects to Marla’s accusation by saying that her mother begged not to be taken to a care facility, Marla makes a clever distinction: “You can’t care for her by doing what she wants. You have to do what she needs. And that is why I can care better than a family member because I have no skin in the game. … yes, I oversaw the sale of some of her assets to finance [her bills in the care facility], and yes, I pay myself, too, because caring, sir, is my job. … All-day, every day, I care.” You have to admire the concision in her speech, her dazzling use of differentiation, addressing counterargument, and appealing to ethos. And it makes sense. Kids surely want all the sugar they can get and more. But that’s not what they need. The same logic applies to those with dementia. Marla becomes less the greedy predator preying on the vulnerable, and more the strong-willed businesswoman who does what might seem ruthless but necessary. She continues: “I care for those who are in need of protection. Protection from apathy, protection from their own pride, and quite often, protection from their own children. … offspring, who are willing to let their parents starve in squalor and struggle with pain rather than dip into what they see as their inheritance to pay for the necessary care.” By this point, we begin to suspect that Feldstrom is actually the greedy one. At the same time, Marla’s argumentation is so tactical, the intonation so calculated, that it just lacks authenticity. You can’t be entirely sure: is Marla a good guy, or a bad guy? There, uncertainty over the main character — you have your second shot of dopamine. With questions like this, we keep watching. Mind you, this is only less than seven minutes into the movie, and Feldstrom has gone from being the bad guy to the not so bad guy and then again the bad (in the sense of incompetent) guy, and the ruthless Marla with her problematic worldview becomes a respectable professional. 这么紧凑的人物翻转制造了「爽剧」的效果。

不得不佩服好莱坞故事产业的成熟。

The next scene, we see Marla Grayson walking down the stairs outside the courthouse, with full-on badassery. Feldstrom comes after her. He is wearing a red cap again. Looks like he can be a Trump supporter. And he’s calling her “bitch.” He’s in a rage. Words are flushing out of his mouth: “I hope you get raped, and I hope you get murdered, and I hope you get killed!” And he spits on her face. His vulgarity is complete. But his anger also makes you think that he’s truly the victim. Feldstrom is surely an uncivilized, undereducated person for losing his cool like that, but … it could be you — you may have said something similar on social media, in response to some monster doing something flagrantly dehumanizing… Again, you are not sure whether Marla is the good guy or bad guy, and therefore you are not sure if Feldstrom’s outburst is justified. And here comes the problematic part. Marla takes off her sunglasses and looks ferociously into Feldstrom’s eyes: “Does it sting more because I’m a woman? That you got so soundly beaten in there by someone with a vagina? Having a penis doesn’t automatically make you more scary to me, just the opposite. You may be a man, but if you ever threaten, touch or spit on me again… I will grab your dick and balls and I will rip them clean off, you understand? I’ll tell your mom you send your best.” This is a calculated move to make the female audience feel so good, no? You had been belittled at least once, so indelibly, just because you are a girl/woman, and this is exactly what you wanted to say to the offender had you had the guts (which you didn’t). So hearing Marla say that so collectedly just makes you feel wonderful. If you feel that way, that’s due to something called mirror neurons, “brain cells that fire not only when we perform an action but when we observe someone else perform the same action.” 看节目主持人在享受美食的时候，自己也馋了，即使你的理性告诉你那不是真正的食物，而是像素构成的幻影。

But how are men reacting to the scene? Could be something totally different. It could frighten the male audience. When you feel threatened and stressed out, you also become more focused. Scientists have long discovered that even when we don’t face a direct physical threat, as long as we begin to imagine those threats, we get stressed out, and thus more focused. You can identify with Feldstrom and feel intimidated by Marla. Or you can feel frightened for Marla in anticipation of Feldstrom’s fightback. Or, it can be that the masculine part of you feels threatened, and the feminine part of you feels elated. If you can simultaneously feel these two things, oh boy, you are getting the optimal experience. Cortisol is the attention hormone, and oxytocin the bonding hormone. Cortisol combined with oxytocin can give you the experience of transportation (“transport” in the sense of being overwhelmed “with a strong emotion, especially joy”). The second time watching this scene, though, I just rolled my eyes at Marla, because in the next eighteen minutes, the good-guy-bad-guy suspense is completely resolved. The next eighteen minutes show you how Marla capitalizes on the loopholes in the medical and legal system, how she takes advantage of the human weakness of automatically following orders and trusting authority figures, how she preys on those with insufficient legal resources, and what she claims as “care” is actually just grift. As in Gone Girl, Pike once again plays the female villain character in I Care A Lot. Only this time, her character Marla is a lesbian, which frees her from the obligation of playing along with the modern, enlightened men’s fantasy about modern, enlightened women. Marla can express her contempt for men explicitly, whereas in Gone Girl the Cool Girl Amy has to convey her contempt through elaborate schemes. It is really worth the while to revisit the famed Cool Girl passage in Gone Girl, for those too young to have watched or heard of the film:That night at the Brooklyn party, I was playing the girl who was in style, the girl a man like Nick wants: the Cool Girl. Men always say that as the defining compliment, don’t they? She’s a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like she’s hosting the world’s biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I don’t mind, I’m the Cool Girl. Men actually think this girl exists. Maybe they’re fooled because so many women are willing to pretend to be this girl...Oh, and if you’re not a Cool Girl, I beg you not to believe that your man doesn’t want the Cool Girl. It may be a slightly different version—maybe he’s vegetarian, so Cool Girl loves seitan and is great with dogs; or maybe he’s a hipster artist, so Cool Girl is a tattooed, bespectacled nerd who loves comics. There are variations to the window dressing, but believe me, he wants Cool Girl, who is basically the girl who likes every f***ing thing he likes and doesn’t ever complain. (How do you know you’re not Cool Girl? Because he says things like “I like strong women.” If he says that to you, he will at some point f*** someone else. Because “I like strong women” is code for “I hate strong women.” Gone Girl is invested in the plight of contemporary women, while I Care A Lot is not — the pseudo-feminist things Marla says only bring cheap gratification. Cool Girl Amy’s transgression consists of framing men for stalking, rape, and murder, of putting men to social death and behind bars. But Marla’s seeming transgression of heteronormative sexuality is only a masquerade for her real transgression: her subscription to a macho capitalist logic. Let me quickly sum up the rest of I Care A Lot. Marla collides with a doctor to induce signs of dementia in a rich old lady. Then Marla becomes the legal guardian of that rich old lady, Jennifer Peterson. But Jennifer turns out to be the mother of a super rich and powerful Russian man, Roman, whose business includes human trafficking. Roman kills the doctor and makes it look like suicide, in an attempt to frighten Marla into forfeiting her guardianship on his mother. Marla remains undaunted. So Roman tries to kill Marla, and fails; he tries to kill Marla’s girlfriend Fran, and also fails. The two failed attempts are irritating, I know, because they just make the story implausible. And it gets more irritating. Set on go big or go home, Marla gets back at Roman, and succeeds: she miraculously becomes Roman’s legal guardian, and puts a $10 million price tag on Roman’s freedom. Here comes another twist. Roman proposes an alternative to the $10 million: “Instead of me giving you $10 million… we become partners, go into business together. … I hate you… but, oh, the money we could make. You’re a rare person, Marla. Your determination is… Frankly, it’s scary. But this guardianship grift, it’s ripe, but right now it’s small potatoes. I propose we create a monster… a countrywide guardianship corporation, with you as CEO and co-owner. Use my money, use your… skills. Destroy the competition. Take control of the entire market.”Yes, the two persons that for the most part of the movie try to kill each other become business partners at the end! Two absolutely depraved capitalists joining forces! 没有永远的敌人，不要跟钱过不去 — 这是整部电影的底层逻辑。

The director/scriptwriter must have this twist, which veers the theme of the movie toward the triumph of capitalism, to sustain audience engagement and achieve its own capitalist, commercial success. Obscene!And brace yourself for the most f**ked-up part of the movie. Marla accepts the partnership and achieves CEO of a publicly traded company level of success at the age of 39. She just finishes a TV interview and she’s walking to her car. Feldstrom walks up to her and fires gunshot at her heart. Feldstrom never gets to see his mom and his mom just died alone in the care facility. So he shoots Marla in the heart. This time, Marla completely fails to fire back with words. It is implied that she is killed on the spot. I was screaming (in my head) at this point. A f**king greedy, immoral capitalist, empowered by another wealthy, immoral capitalist, unstopped by the court and the government, or rather, aided by the incompetent people in the legal system and corrupted doctors, only to be killed by an incel kind of guy? The only effective solution to ending injustice and capitalist avarice is pure gun violence in the most American style? As the closing credits music begins, I was yelling in my head: NO! That CAN’T be how the story ends! Movies are supposed to satisfy viewers’ deepest fantasies, and this one does not satisfy my fantasy that justice can be restored through nonviolent, rational means, through legal measures, and through investigative journalism. After all that shit that happened in 2022, after all those people that disappeared, this is the last movie I needed. I wanted movies to represent messy reality, not this kind of bullshit fairytale. I was so angry that I even began to suspect the director/scriptwriter is some sort of closeted Republican incel funded by far-right groups. I realized I needed Spotlight kind of movies. After watching the movie, I spent an hour watching videos about Elizabeth Holmes.

看到很多人吐槽毁三观，所以三观我就不多提了。

只能说是一部很邪恶的电影，所以看着很难受，全程都特别不舒服。

如果有人说这是爽片。。。

我们一定是两类人，因为完全get不到。

片头其实还算不错，成功吸引了观众。

女主立了一个挺有个性的flag，说自己是母狮子很带感。

出场就是女强人的样子，让我想起了Prada 里的那个女魔头（唉，人家至少没她那么邪恶啊）。

虽然看到女主这么邪恶，但是想到电影这么长，后面的剧情说不定女主会学到什么，有所改变。

看到老太太后，还以为她会改变女主。

现实是我马上就被打脸了，或许是我太高估编剧了。

剧情继续发展下去后，我终于明白了编剧想往哪走。

原来老太太是黑帮的人。

嗯，这个设定还挺有意思，那就是说有人会教训女主了？

开始有了点小期待。

现实是，我马上又被打脸了。

黑帮老大原来是贩卖人口的。

我对人口贩卖一直都很抵触，哪怕黑帮是做暗杀或是抢劫放火之类的我都能接受，还会站在他们那边。

可是编剧偏偏要把倆屎壳郎凑一起，臭味相投，都喜欢压榨别人的自由与生命来获取利益。

看到这里我已经很不爽了，只能勉强期待一下他们狗咬狗吧。

就，或许，编剧会让他们两败俱伤呢？

看恶斗恶也是别有一番风味吧。

但，我，又，一，次，被，打，脸，了。

看到这里我脸都已经被打肿了。

这个黑帮老大不只是低调这么简单了，他简直是憋屈啊，憋屈到从一个黑帮老大变成一个弱爆的穷老大。

说他穷，是因为他接个母亲才带三个人，多一个人就可以见到母亲了，还非得搞得自己像是见不着妈妈的小孩一样，眼睁睁看着离母亲几步远，却不能相认。

又不是苦情戏，搞什么啊？

（他的身高还特别符合这比喻。。。

）接着就是出门才一个保镖，那么强壮一个大个子一下子就被一个弱女子制服了。。。

不说他穷我都不知道怎么形容这样一个身边总共就六个手下的黑帮老大了（一律师，一开的士的，一个司机，两个打杂的，一个保镖）。

好吧，他不穷，他多得是钱，我知道，那他还输给女主这个钱又没他多，势力也没他大的人？

只能解释为他的智商完全不在线。

黑帮老大和女主两股恶势力达成共识的时候还真是可怕，后面的montage画面居然看着像恐怖片。

全程下来，女主是很厉害，我承认。

她会钻法律的空子，懂得死里逃生，也不轻易认输。

她的性子其实可以让观众很喜欢她的。

可是这里就是为什么这电影失败了。

我们那么关注黑帮老大就是希望他能打败女主。

而当一部电影的主角，不管他是好人还是坏人，得不到观众的支持与共鸣，反之，观众的看点只在于期望她得到报应，得到悲惨的下场时，这部电影作为一个故事已经失败了。

当观众坐在屏幕前，透过女主的眼睛看这个世界，感受她的情绪，与走进她的生活时，观众是与女主很近的。

哪怕是女主的伴侣，也不像我们，可以关注着她的一举一动。

所以，我们甚至可以说观众应该比女主的伴侣更了解她，更贴近她的内心与生活。

问题来了，我们为什么要与这个主角建立这么“亲密”的关系？

她值得吗？

她不值得。

所以观众愤怒。

我们这么了解女主，我们看着她的生活，看着她的一举一动，可我们越看越恨，越看，越憎恶面前这个披着人皮的恶魔。

所以我觉得这个故事是失败的。

这个故事只让我看到了一个贪得无厌，最终自食恶果的恶魔，而不是一个勇敢无畏的女英雄。

看着这个恶魔，我甚至觉得自己也变成了一个恶魔。

我会愤怒为什么女朋友没有被杀死？

为什么黑帮老大没有被杀死？

为什么那些为“疗养院”工作的人没有都得到报应？

看完电影后满腔怒火，愤恨这么多人没死的我，也被电影变成了魔鬼。

法律这种东西，果然是脆弱的。

有道德的人不需要它，没道德，没底线的人不会被它束缚，反而会利用它得到最大的利益。

多讽刺啊。

结尾还勉强算合理。

如果女主真的顺风顺水下半辈子，那这部电影就真的是一部完美的失败品了。

讽刺的黑色幽默结局淡淡地诉说着电影带给观众的，唯一的希望：踩着别人往上爬的人，终会在还没享受胜利的成果前摔下来。

这样的人，得不到满足，只会越爬越高。

她爬不到顶端的，因为从来就没有什么顶端。

所以她一定会摔下来。

那个开枪的勇士值得表扬，一星给他了。

（好在电影里还有一个人值得一星，要不多浪费这一星）最后，女主一开始说的话真的让我tm不爽。

一开始就对着观众来一句，“你以为你是好人，其实你不是”。

nm的，我再怎么不是好人，也不会是你这种人渣，你还没资格教训我。

你说你是狮子，那是侮辱狮子。

狮子不会不断地压榨它的猎物来满足无尽的欲望，狮子只会捕猎它需要生存的食物。

你不是狮子，你就是一个贪婪的魔鬼。

你没资格说自己是狮子。

哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，无儿无女的老人，就是待宰的猪，我三十岁就想到了这一点，哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，我会留给子孙一点够用的自己的存款资本，然后剩下的必须自己挥霍一空！

如果不孝顺，那算我教育失败（任何投资都不是百分百成功的，你得承认这点，但我狼爸虎妈的教育方法我不信能教育出不肖子孙，我跟你们讲生孩子是自己的累赘负担观念不同。

我认为生儿育女本质，就是一种投资！

播种开花结果，最终哺育父母，也就是我自己，哈哈哈这才是终极奥义，你们不婚不育实际上丧失了最大最好的人生退路，我用一辈子跟你赌）我会不留一分钱给他们，全部自己挥霍，人都是怕死的，网上小年轻还老推崇安乐死，实际上自杀都是最懦弱最无能走投无路的人才会去做的，但凡有能活下去的方法，人，一定会想尽办法活下去，这就是人的本性！

自古以来，自杀的人都是少数，安乐死的人更是少之又少，谁也不愿意放弃享受生命的最后一刻，除非痛苦大过活着！

你们这群小屁孩竟然说老了失能了就安乐死，想的太简单了逗比，真到那时候，只要痛苦不大于活下去的精力，没人会想死的嘿嘿。

我都想干女主这行了，真真稳赚不赔

但凡马拉干的是别的勾当，我都会敬佩她无畏坚韧大胆机灵自律的一面，但她居然坑害没有监护人的老年人，而且还是个独立富有且有学识的女性（虽然是假身份）。

真的全程都气得不行，马拉的形象越是强大，我就越是觉得她可恶。

本来已经愤怒得不想再看了，看着剧情刻意营造出她特厉害的一面，她还总是一副意气风发的样子，她的妆造一直都属于很明艳干练的类型，而且养老院里也是阳光明媚的，我是真担心导演会给她一个好结局，但又觉得不太可能，总之是为了看她遭报应时候的下场，才揪着一颗心挺到了最后。

真的会不自觉把自己代入到那些老人身上，因为我现在就丝毫没有结婚成家的想法，那如果我就是一生都专注赚钱没有结婚，年纪大了就是无儿无女无亲人呢？

我不就可能成为那些老人中的一员吗？

辛苦大半辈子，吃了很多苦才存下了些钱，老了就想安安生生地过晚年，做点自己喜欢的事，拿着钱尽情享受生活，健身、旅游、社交、买衣服……把年轻时候没时间或者不敢做的都做个遍。

本来可以过足瘾不留遗憾，却突然被这帮歹徒中途截胡，失去了大半辈子的心血不说，还要被软禁在养老院，听由这帮冷酷的陌生人摆布，时不时还要被威胁恐吓，甚至在正常状态下被带到精神病院。

自由没了、钱没了、享受没了，只剩下被安排的无聊日程、狭小且满是规矩的小空间……真的好气！
